History
The station opened on July 10, 1925.[2]
From 17 March 2012, station numbering was introduced on the Tōbu Tōjō Line, with Obusuma Station becoming "TJ-35".[5]
The station building was formerly located on the east (up) side of the tracks, connected to the platforms by an overhead footbridge, with no access to the station from the west side.[4] Prior to rebuilding, the remains of a former side platform also lay on the west side of the station.[4]
Work to rebuild the station commenced in June 2014, and was completed in July 2016, with entrances on both east and west sides of the station and a new footbridge.[6]
